This is a categorized list of the bird species recorded in the archipelago of Puerto Rico which consists of the main island of Puerto Rico, two island municipalities off the east coast (Vieques and Culebra), three uninhabited islands off the west coast (Mona, Monito, and Desecheo) and more than 125 smaller cays and islands. The avifauna of Puerto Rico includes a total of 349 species, of which 166 (47.56%) are accidental, 42 (12.03%) are introduced by humans and 16 (4.58%) are endemic. (More...) This is a list of countries without armed forces. The term "country" is used in the sense of independent state; thus, it applies only to sovereign states and not dependencies, whose defense is the responsibility of another country or an army alternative. The term "armed forces" refers to any government-sponsored defense used to further the domestic and foreign policies of their respective government. (More...)

Question unanswered from last month:

A sentence in the intro says: "The historical concept and definition of sexual orientation varies and has changed greatly over time; for example the word "gay" wasn't used to describe sexual orientation until the mid 20th century." I'd like to see an inline source citation (or two) to support that sentence. Indeed, I don't think the word "gay" was used to describe sexual orientation until the 1970s, but I'm not a reliable source. --Orlady (talk) 02:44, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Are there links for terms like executive producer, redubbing, episodes, narrators, DVD, feature film, broadcast, etc.
  • Am I suppose to know what Prod. line stands for?
  • Why are air dates and alternate names for Australia and Canada airings not included?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 20:17, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Godsmack discography

  • Gramatically, parallel structure would dictate that the word album follow all four adjectives or just the last. The first and the last is unacceptable.
  • Is there a date for the Las Vegas performance?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 20:23, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

  • See WP:CAPTION#Wording--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 02:05, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
    • I see it, and I believe the captions comply. They all give short fragments stating the building's rank in the city, and therefore all are "related more logically to the surrounding text." Cheers, Rai-me 00:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Dubai World Trade Centre should probably have height in the text.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 02:05, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
    • Y Done -- Rai-me 00:52, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
  • It does not make sense to me that only completed structures are considered buildings. It would seem to me that once some floors become habitable and people take occupancy, it should become a building whether it is topped out or not.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 02:05, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
    • Well, the occupation buildings that are not yet topped out is fairly rare. The Burj Dubai is over 100 floors now, but the majority of its floors aren't even exteriorly covered, so it isn't near being suitable for occupancy, and probably won't be until it is topped out. Incomplete structures are almost always considered structures and not buildings; this was determined by a ruling from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat in 1996.
